What was the girl doing driving at 140km/h in the city???
She overestimated her driving skills.And by the way avengerboater, don't tell me you've never driven your K2 C63 140km/h in the city
With 466rwhp you reach 140km/h between two intersections starting from a red light

I had a 08 Audi RS4 for about a year. Had lot of problems with it. Sold it and got the M3. My wife drives the Q7 and loves it. Like to see the RS5 when it comes out.
If it was me, i would go with the C63 over the Audi.

The value provided by the C63 is simply amazing. I do not believe Audi can come close.
Where else can you take a normally aspirated car that costs $62K, add long tube headers and software and get 460 horsepower to the rear wheels? There may be some domestic cars that can do this but nothing on the German front that I know of.
On the pre-owned front, the 55s provide the same type of value and performance. Kudos to MB for delivering horsepower in a European package.

Everyone has been a great help. If I may ask another question with input. Would you consider getting a CLK 63 AMG or CLK 63 BS over the
C 63? I haven't driven one since they are rare birds, only seen them. There are quite a few out there. The only problem I have is that I am on the east coast and most of the ones I have seen are west coast which appear to be the low miles one. I have never gotten a car that I haven't driven let alone sight unseen. Any thoughts? And thanks.

Everything I look at keeps me coming back to the C 63. As I have said before, I have never owned a sedan but the C 63 even though a sedan has great lines to it. Amazing power this sedan has and was surprised at the raw grit it had. I would wait until the C coupe comes out but 2012 is a long wait. So I am leaning toward the C 63 at this point. I just have to sell my S5 first. Would like to trade it in but the hit is way to big for a car that has 4500 miles on it. I like the S5. A great car but thought it would be faster than it is. Guess that is what I get for not test driving one before hand but there was none around to see let alone drive. My first time getting a car without driving it and will be the last time too!

Being the owner of a Black Series and an S5 I can tell you first hand ab the S5.
Mine is as modded as it can get and it is torturously slow, heavy, (and feels it)
and has numb steering. Yes its a good everyday drivers car but thats it.
I will tell you this - my car is white and I did a White/Black Theme /coilovers, 20's Painted all exterior parts gloss black, exhaust etc.
The looks and attention this car gets is unbelievable. If any of you have seen my Black Series it is no slouch in the looks dept. but I swear to you I get harrassed to death in the S5 and have 2x as many people asking ab it taking pictures pulling up at stoplights - asking me how much it costs, if I want to sell it, is it a special Euro edition on and on and on. I swear you would think I was driving an LP.
I dont think the 63 has it in the looks dept. but if you want a drivers car and a car that is going to put a smile on your face - 63 all the way.

I would love to see your S5
Could you post some pics? A friend of mine bought an A5 and is looking for inspiration He already has the ABT Exhausts and rear difusor, and chip tuning.
